For the first time ever, the USCC Certification Commissioners and the Young Professionals co-hosted a breakfast meeting on the morning of Thursday, January 26 at COMPOST2023. The event, titled Certification Commissioners, Young Professionals and YOU, a Professional Development Breakfast, connected prospective industry-certified young professionals and industry-certified mentors.
“Combining the Young Professionals (YP) group with the Certification Commission and those individuals already certified or considering certification in the composting industry was a perfect match,” Teri Sorg-McManamon, USCC Director of Professional Development said.
“The USCC increasingly places importance on those coming up in the industry who are passionate about sustainability and are committed to expanding the compost industry nationwide – the combined breakfast provided an opportunity to connect with one another and connect the dots between professional development, certification and career advancement among young professionals”.
The event was sponsored in part by Recology Sonoma Marin. Recology also sponsored the free professional headshot service for the Young Professionals at the USCC and CREF Networking Lounge Thursday afternoon.
